Cast in April 2016, Pearl Mackie plays Bill Potts, who provides the voiceover for the new footage, which also features Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor and Matt Lucas as Nardole.

"The first time you meet him, he's funny, " Bill says, referring, of course, to the Doctor. "The second time, he's amazing. The third time, you realize he's the most dangerous man in the universe. He says he's a man of peace, but he walks in war. I'm having the time of my life, and I wouldn't miss it for the world -- even if it kills me."
